< Псалми 126 >
1 Кад враћаше Господ робље сионско, бејасмо као у сну.
When Yahweh brought [us Israeli people] back to Jerusalem (OR, enabled us Israelis to prosper again), [it was wonderful]; it seemed as though [SIM] we were dreaming.
2 Тада уста наша беху пуна радости, и језик наш певања. Тада говораху по народима: Велико дело чини Господ на њима.
We were extremely happy, and we [SYN] continued shouting joyfully. Then the [other] people-groups said about us, “Yahweh has done great things for them!”
3 Велико дело чини Господ на нама; развеселисмо се.
[And we say, “Yes], Yahweh [truly] has done great things for us, and we are [very] happy.”
4 Враћај, Господе, робље наше, као потоке на сасушену земљу.
Yahweh, when it rains, water flows in the streams again [after they were dry] [SIM]. Similarly, enable our nation to become great again like it was before.
5 Који су са сузама сејали, нека жању с певањем.
We cried when we planted [seeds because it was hard work preparing the soil that had not been plowed for many years]; [now we want to] shout joyfully because we are gathering a [big] harvest.
6 Иде и плаче који носи семе да сеје; поћи ће с песмом носећи снопове своје.
Those who cried as they carried the [bags of] seeds [to the fields] will shout joyfully when they bring the crops [to their houses at harvest time].
